Poetry

---

In the morning before the dawning of day,
Find a secluded place and begin to pray;
Thank the Lord for a very restful night,
And making everything great and alright;
Thank Him for the blessings that unfold,
And helping you across life's threshold;
Family and friends give special thanks,
And those who are serving at all ranks;
After giving thanks you are grateful for,
Also for your enemies that you deplore;
For God to open their heart to let in light,
Ending any animosity that they despite;
Ask Him to guide you the day throughout,
In shedding all of your fears and doubt;
Remaining safe traveling out and back,
Keeping lust to cause straying off track;
Once you have finished you are assured,
God and His blessings will be out poured;
In having Him in your life for to command,
You can rest assured of His guiding hand.
